There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more.
~George Gordon, Lord Byron, Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage

I’d like to say this was a nostalgic place I would go to with my family but actually I’ve never been and that was always a sore spot since I had to listen to all my cousins brag about going. So that’s why it was included; not for the memories but the lack of them.

“The dance of the palm trees, the oceans calling, the first rays of sun and heaven is here.” Mike Dolan
